So, if you haven't left yet, feel free to wait for a bit and get there at around 1:20-1:30pm instead.
EDIT: the tournament turnedd out toto be a faill.

6 people. We waited like 1 and a half hours to see if anyone else would come.
Well that really sucked.......We really need more participants next time.
Yeah, unfortunately we only ended up having six people this time. From now on, we're going to post threads in the WBO General North America Forum for potential tournaments. From those threads, once we have eight confirmed participants, then the tournament will become official. So, Toronto members, it's important that you confirm your attendance from now on! It's disappointing to everyone who does show up when none of the people on the possible attendees list end up coming ...
Anyways, we're aiming for our next tournament to be on December 28th. Pockyx3 should have the thread up for that sooner or later, and hopefully having over a months notice will help everyone free up their schedule (and convince their parents to bring them haha)!

Damn, this is sad. A lot of the formerly big communities are getting smaller to the point of not even having 8... I know that some people may be inconvenienced by tournament dates, weather, etc., but still, it's sad to see that less and less people are showing up. 
Hopefully you guys can try to rebuild Toronto's tournament scene!

i came at least, but why are they mostly at high park?
Where the hell are the twenty people who came every month before.
Well, this year I didn't take a road trip with Deikailo - so I guess that's 2 down from November 2011 levels...
Seriously though, it is getting cold outside, so keep that in mind when looking at attendance levels - especially with only loosely committed parents who might be willing to spend 3 hours in the park when it's Sunny and 23°c, but not when it is overcast and a windy 9°c...

That's definitely true. There's at least four or five people I know who can't/aren't going to come until the weather improves. So, I may look into finally finding an indoor venue. That being said, it was actually a perfect fall day for a tournament! 10°c, sunny, and little to no wind! D:
